Description

The Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Program provides Federal funds to counties that traditionally have been supported by timber payments. These payments make up for the loss in timber payments caused by the decline in timber harvest on Federal lands that occurred in the 1990s. There are three separate ¿titles¿ under this legislation: i. Title I - Secure Payments for States and Counties containing Federal Land ii. Title II - Special Projects on Federal Land iii. Title III - County Funds. This grant offering is strictly for Title II funds of the Act, which are administered by the federal government and in this specific instance, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM).
